Here's how to find the best gravel riding in Spain and Italy
From the wild 'Badlands' to the pristine Tuscan countryside: here's how to find the best gravel riding in Spain and Italy
While it's relatively easy to find nice gravel loops around your home, riding abroad is a different story - there are a lot of variables that might turn a nice cycling holiday into a day spent lost on unknown gravel paths, or hangry moments trying to find a cafe stop. Even if you're a seasoned gravel rider, cycling at new locations is a lot more helpful with a local expert and that is where Saddle Skedaddle comes in.
By exploring the region by bike, you will be quite literally traversing historic roads that already in Roman times connected the area with France. See all the details of the Saddle Skedaddle 'Tuscany - Strade Bianche Explorer' guided gravel riding holiday heremight be right up your alley. The Andalucian labyrinth of jagged sierras is a stark contrast to the lush Tuscan hills, but they too are dotted with ancient villages and castles, connected by an endless network of trails, making them any gravel adventurer's dream.
Much like the famous race, Skedaddle's Badlands adventure begins in Granada, a city that is home to the Alhambra Palace. From there, you will ride past clay cliffs, cross arid deserts, and catch glimpses of snow-capped Sierra Nevada peaks in the distance. Similarly to Italy, you can hire a well-equipped gravel bike from Saddle Skedaddle and you'll be provided a full itinerary and guidance from the local experts.
